- An integrative approach to investigate the respective roles of single-nucleotide variants and copy-number variants in Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder(2016) LIMA, Leandro de Araujo; FEIO-DOS-SANTOS, Ana Cecilia; BELANGERO, Sintia Iole; GADELHA, Ary; BRESSAN, Rodrigo Affonseca; SALUM, Giovanni Abrahao; PAN, Pedro Mario; MORIYAMA, Tais Silveira; GRAEFF-MARTINS, Ana Soledade; TAMANAHA, Ana Carina; ALVARENGA, Pedro; KRIEGER, Fernanda Valle; FLEITLICH-BILYK, Bacy; JACKOWSKI, Andrea Parolin; BRIETZKE, Elisa; SATO, Joao Ricardo; POLANCZYK, Guilherme Vanoni; MARI, Jair de Jesus; MANFRO, Gisele Gus; ROSARIO, Maria Conceicao do; MIGUEL, Euripedes Constantino; PUGA, Renato David; TAHIRA, Ana Carolina; SOUZA, Viviane Neri; CHILE, Thais; GOUVEIA, Gisele Rodrigues; SIMOES, Sergio Nery; CHANG, Xiao; PELLEGRINO, Renata; TIAN, Lifeng; GLESSNER, Joseph T.; HASHIMOTO, Ronaldo Fumio; ROHDE, Luis Augusto; SLEIMAN, Patrick M. A.; HAKONARSON, Hakon; BRENTANI, HelenaMany studies have attempted to investigate the genetic susceptibility of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), but without much success. The present study aimed to analyze both single-nucleotide and copy-number variants contributing to the genetic architecture of ADHD. We generated exome data from 30 Brazilian trios with sporadic ADHD. We also analyzed a Brazilian sample of 503 children/adolescent controls from a High Risk Cohort Study for the Development of Childhood Psychiatric Disorders, and also previously published results of five CNV studies and one GWAS meta-analysis of ADHD involving children/adolescents. The results from the Brazilian trios showed that cases with de novo SNVs tend not to have de novo CNVs and vice-versa. Although the sample size is small, we could also see that various comorbidities are more frequent in cases with only inherited variants. Moreover, using only genes expressed in brain, we constructed two ""in silico"" protein-protein interaction networks, one with genes from any analysis, and other with genes with hits in two analyses. Topological and functional analyses of genes in this network uncovered genes related to synapse, cell adhesion, glutamatergic and serotoninergic pathways, both confirming findings of previous studies and capturing new genes and genetic variants in these pathways.
- High risk cohort study for psychiatric disorders in childhood: rationale, design, methods and preliminary results(2015) SALUM, Giovanni Abrahao; GADELHA, Ary; PAN, Pedro Mario; MORIYAMA, Tais Silveira; GRAEFF-MARTINS, Ana Soledade; TAMANAHA, Ana Carina; ALVARENGA, Pedro; KRIEGER, Fernanda Valle; FLEITLICH-BILYK, Bacy; JACKOWSKI, Andrea; SATO, Joao Ricardo; BRIETZKE, Elisa; POLANCZYK, Guilherme Vanoni; BRENTANI, Helena; MARI, Jair de Jesus; ROSARIO, Maria Conceicao Do; MANFRO, Gisele Gus; BRESSAN, Rodrigo Affonseca; MERCADANTE, Marcos Tomanik; MIGUEL, Euripedes Constantino; ROHDE, Luis AugustoThe objective of this study is to present the rationale, methods, design and preliminary results from the High Risk Cohort Study for the Development of Childhood Psychiatric Disorders. We describe the sample selection and the components of each phases of the study, its instruments, tasks and procedures. Preliminary results are limited to the baseline phase and encompass: (i) the efficacy of the oversampling procedure used to increase the frequency of both child and family psychopathology; (ii) interrater reliability and (iii) the role of differential participation rate. A total of 9937 children from 57 schools participated in the screening procedures. From those 2512 (random =958; high risk =1554) were further evaluated with diagnostic instruments. The prevalence of any child mental disorder in the random strata and high-risk strata was 19.9% and 29.7%. The oversampling procedure was successful in selecting a sample with higher family rates of any mental disorders according to diagnostic instruments. Interrater reliability (kappa) for the main diagnostic instrument range from 0.72 (hyperkinetic disorders) to 0.84 (emotional disorders). The screening instrument was successful in selecting a sub-sample with high risk for developing mental disorders. This study may help advance the field of child psychiatry and ultimately provide useful clinical information.
- Socioeconomic diversities and infant development at 6 to 9 months in a poverty area of São Paulo, Brazil(2018) TELLA, Patricia; PICCOLO, Luciane da Rosa; RANGEL, Mayra Lemus; ROHDE, Luis Augusto; POLANCZYK, Guilherme Vanoni; MIGUEL, Euripides Constantino; GRISI, Sandra Josefina Ferraz Ellero; FLEITLICH-BILYK, Bacy; FERRARO, Alexandre ArchanjoAbstract Introduction The effects of socioeconomic disparities on cognitive development tend to emerge early in infancy and to widen throughout childhood, and may perpetuate later in life. Although the study of how poverty affects early childhood has increased in the last 20 years, many of the effects remain largely unknown, especially during the first year of life. Aim To investigate the influence of socioeconomic status (SES) and maternal education on infants’ language, motor and cognitive development. Methods The cognitive, language and motor skills of 444 infants aged 6 to 9 months selected from a poor neighborhood in São Paulo, Brazil, were evaluated using the Bayley Scales of Infant Development. A questionnaire on socioeconomic background was administered to the participants’ families. Results A positive association was found between SES and infants’ performance on language and motor scales. Additionally, higher maternal education was associated with higher language and cognitive scores. Conclusion Our findings indicate that SES effects are detectable very early in infancy. This result has implications for the timing of both screening and intervention efforts to help children overcome the consequences of living in poverty.

- The specific and combined role of domestic violence and mental health disorders during pregnancy on new-born health(2017) FERRARO, Alexandre Archanjo; ROHDE, Luis Augusto; POLANCZYK, Guilherme Vanoni; ARGEU, Adriana; MIGUEL, Euripides Constantino; GRISI, Sandra Josefina Ferraz Ellero; FLEITLICH-BILYK, BacyBackground: Addressing impaired foetal growth is recognized as a public health priority. Certain risk factors for this condition, such as poor nutritional status at birth, have been found to be highly correlated with poverty. However, the role of psychosocial factors, specifically the mother's mental health and exposure to violence during pregnancy, have yet to be further explored. Our objective was to determine if there is a measurable association between combined psychosocial factors, specifically domestic violence and mental disorders, and birth outcomes, specifically birth nutritional status and preterm delivery. Methods: We followed 775 women from an underserved, urban area, beginning their 28th week of gestation. Diagnostic interviews were performed to determine if any of the mothers had any of the following disorders: mood disorder, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), substance dependence, psychotic disorder, or anti-social personality disorder. Physical, psychological, and sexual domestic violence were also assessed. Results: Domestic violence and mental disorders were highly correlated in our sample. About 27.15% of the women in our study experienced domestic violence, and about 38.24% of them were diagnosed with mental disorders. The main association we found between combined psychosocial factors and neonate outcomes was between anxiety (IRR = 1.83; 95% CI = 1.06-3.17)/physical violence (IRR = 1.95; 95% CI = 1.11-3.42) and the rate of small-for-gestational age (SGA) in new-borns. More specifically, the combination of anxiety (beta = -0.48; 95% CI = -0.85/-0.10) and sexual violence (beta = -1.58; 95% CI = -2.61/-0.54) was also associated with birth length. Maternal risk behaviours such as smoking, drinking, inadequate prenatal care, and inadequate weight gain could not sufficiently explain these associations, suggesting that these psychosocial factors may be influencing underlying biological mechanisms. Conclusion: Domestic violence against women and mental disorders amongst pregnant women are extremely prevalent in under-resourced, urban areas and ultimately, have detrimental effects on birth outcomes. It is imperative that actions be taken to prevent violence and improve mental health during pregnancy.
